(OUTDATED) Building an Android .apk -file

[lcl]

I am lost. could someone install it all to a disc and compress it into an .iso image?

What are you talking about?

like with image burn or something something ( sorry, takling gibberish)

There's no point trying to do it like that, it would take 100x the time needed for doing it the original way.
You just have to follow the steps carefully.

Hello!

The problem is most likely in your setup.bat -file.
Make sure that you have the right paths in the file.

hi ! im of 15 years and i need a lot of help !
i have windows 7 . and in command prompt when i type 'c:users>divyansh(my pc name)>downloads\geandroid' and enter it didn't worked ! it shows that "geandroid is not a bat file" then i typed
'c:users>divyansh>downloads\geandroid\setup' and it worked till step 8th . now what to do so that i can give the command 'android update project -t 1 -p .' in the geandroid folder ?

when i type 'c:users>divyansh(my pc name)>downloads\geandroid' and enter it didn't worked!

You have done quite many mistakes here.
First, you have to type 'cd' before the path.
Second, you have to have '\' after the colon after drive letter.
Third, you must not use '>' to try to navigate to a folder. You have to use '\' instead.

So, with these things corrected, it would be:

Code: Select all

cd c:\users\divyansh\downloads\geandroid

then i typed 'c:users>divyansh>downloads\geandroid\setup' and it worked till step 8th

If you do the previous step correctly, you won't have to write the whole file address, only the name will be enough.
Remember to put the file extension, too! So, what it should be is this:

Code: Select all

setup.bat

now what to do so that i can give the command 'android update project -t 1 -p .' in the geandroid folder ?

If you have done all the above steps correctly, you don't have to do anything else than to type the command.

I hope this helped!

hi lcl you said that i should type :- cd c:\users\divyansh\downloads\geandroid but i can't do that because the command till c:users>divyansh> is already written there after every time i press enter and i can't remove it by using backspace
what to do ?

[lcl]

Typing what I told you to type overrides the previous text.

[ayushpal]

not happening !

You sure you remembered to put the 'cd' before the path?

Hey I built a .apk file today but when I open it I get a blank white screen.

Also while following the instructions I got this message after using this command:

android update project -t 1 -p .

That's interesting.. It hasn't done that to me, are you sure your setup.bat is ok?
